This is on PBS's 60's Pop & Rock special. Cathy Richardson is even better. Wish Grace Potter (and The Nocturnals) would cover this; Grace's stage presence is just as good or better!
she does great justice to Otis Redding's "Pain In My Heart". Check it out on You Tube.
WOW! Saw her on PBS tonight. Thought she was fantastic. And not to fail to mention that she totally knocked the socks off of my 94 year old mother .... Cathy Richardson keep on rockin' !
Cathy comes across like a young Grace Slick. If her voice and stage presence aren't as overwhelming as Grace's at her best, each is still damn powerful:) --
somebody to love and white rabbit are songs written for grace and only grace ive been listening for 45 yrs and havent heard a good cover yet grace was and is beauty
CKathy R. has a good deal of power and energy, but she's still much more of a conventional rocker than Slick, who was and is a true original. Grace sounded 'cool' even when belting, that's a rare ability. Cathy does this tune as well as or better than any of the Grace-Ersatz types (Darby, Diana, you name 'em), but she's much more of a blues-rock mama than la Slick ever was. I don't usually say a given singer OWNS a song, but in this case I'm tempted to.
Cathy Richardson is an amazing talent- she sings the Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship repertoire quite well and makes the songs her own. Great voice, great energy, great stage presence. She is just what the JS needs to keep the music alive.
@MegaMr46 Sorry your are wrong this is the Jefferson Starship with Paul Kantner, Marty Balin also plays occasionally the Guitar player is Slick Aguiar and has been for years. David Frieberg from Quicksilver is the grey haired round looking guy and Kathy has been in the band for a number of years now since Dianna left. There is another band called Starship that still tours and does the pop crap with Mickey Thomas who was in the Starship when they became that in the 80s.
Excellent shit.....much improved since that horrible mickey thomas starship debacle...they have gutted and completely restored the venerable airplane.....hooray to 1st sista Kathy richardson
It takes a powerful will and voice to cover for Grace Slick. IMO, Kathy has both to spare.
I have loved Grace Slick for over 40 years now. Back in the day she was often not up to her legend either, but I digress.
Grace can no longer perform in public. Kathy is not Grace. Yea, so what. Paul is ... and where is Jorma and Jack? Get over it guys, and wish Grace AND Kathy the best. Rock on and never look back.
Let's drop the "old bastards" comment. The music is timeless and AGE LESS............

This woman is a strong singer. She needs to get away from these pathetic has-beens and hopefully get a career.
Don't get me wrong, Jefferson was one of the best bands ever, but this self-tribute act they have going is just sad.
